2004 Rossignol-Trapet, Chambertin, Grand Cru, bottle (750mL)

Allen Meadows for Burghound writes, " This is also unusually elegant on the nose with spicy dark and black berry fruit and a hint of herbal aromas that merge into rich, earthy and very pure flavors that offer both wonderful freshness and excellent length that displays a classic touch of Chambertin animale. I like this as it's a lovely combination of intensity, texture and overall purity of expression. I should note that this is less powerful than usual but it's also more refined as well so it's a trade off." Jan 2007
